Does this make me "Amazon official"?
From writer and editor James H. Duncan:
Author Pages: I’ve used CreateSpace/Amazon to publish a collection of poetry, and I plan to use them to publish my upcoming collection of short stories, but I had no idea that they allow any author—no matter who has published the book—to create and modify an author page at Amazon.com. You can even link blogs and twitter accounts to the page. It’s like having a second website for free. Might have been common knowledge before, but it was cool news to me, and I thank Jon Fine, the director of Author and Publisher Relations for Amazon, for that great tip.

Well. I also did not know this. I've been the author of several nonfiction titles for a few years now, and never once did it occur to me to register with Amazon and claim them all as mine.
